LXNAV S10 / S100 Variometer 

LXNAV S10 / S100 Variometer

Stand-alone digital variometer with final glide calculator, IGC flight recorder, Bluetooth, backup battery and navigation system with moving map.

General Description

LXNAV S10/S100 is a standalone digital variometer, final glide calculator and navigation system with a simple moving map. The LXNAV S10/S100 has both GPS/FLARM and PDA/PNA input/output. The unit has standard dimensions that will fit into a glider panel with an opening of 80 mm diameter (3.15”) or 57 mm diameter. It is also able to supply a PDA/PNA with power (5VDC/1A). The unit has an integrated high-precision digital pressure sensor and inertial system. The sensors are sampled more than 100 times per second. Real-Time Data is displayed via a vario needle, an airspace map and up to 4 variable numeric fields displayed on a QVGA 320x240 pixel, 3.5″ (S100) or 2.5″ (S10), high brightness (1200 nits) color display. To adjust values and settings the LXNAV S10/S100 has two rotary push button knobs and three additional push buttons.

The LXNAVS10/S100 can be expanded with one or more repeaters via the CAN bus. This allows both pilots in a two-seat glider to have independent control of all functions of each unit in the front or the rear seat.

The S10x unit includes a built-in IGC-approved flight recorder, a Bluetooth module and its own backup battery which provides from 3 to 4.5 hours of independent operation.

The S10x is also capable of running HAWK system (optional purchase), which provides pilot a real time three dimensional wind.

Features

  • An extremely bright 3.5’’ (S100) or 2.5” (S10) QVGA color display readable in all sunlight conditions with the ability to adjust the backlight.
  • Two rotary switches (knobs) with push button function and three push buttons are used for input.
  • Pre-loaded polar database for nearly all gliders.
  • GPS/FLARM and PDA/PNA input/output.
  • FLARM Indication if a FLARM is connected to the GPS/FLARM port.
  • Programmable “needles” for selectable data such as netto vertical speed, relative (super netto) and vertical speed (vario).
  • 320x240 pixels color screen for additional information such as average, thermal vario, time, speed, etc…
  • Many custom audio settings.
  • 100Hz sampling rate for very fast response.
  • Speed to fly indication.
  • TE compensation can be selected to be either a pneumatic TE probe or electronic TE.
  • Audio equalizer, for custom vario sound performance.
  • Audio thermal assistant.
  • Built-in high-level, IGC-approved flight recorder.
  • Built-in Bluetooth module.
  • Backup battery.

HAWK Wind Calculation (Option)

Real time wind
 
The HAWK platform applies an “extended Kalman filter” (EKF) algorithm which jointly estimates all three dimensions of the air mass movement – INSTANTANEOUSLY

 
No compensation, no problem
 
No compensation needed, since it uses no law of energy conservation. More accurate netto vario readings independent of glider speed.
